Adoption Process

Application

Interested in adopting a new furry family member? Every successful adoption begins with our match-making process. Once you have reviewed each animal’s bio and have an idea of who you are interested in adopting, you would then fill out an adoption application. This questionnaire is completed in person as we do not currently have an online application. This helps our adoption counselors get an idea of every two and four legged friend already in the home.

We do cut off adoptions at 3:15pm daily to provide our adoption counselors time to feed and clean the animals for the evening time.

Adoption Interview

After filling out an application, our adoption counselors sit down with our potential adopters to get to know what they are looking for in their next cat or dog. We prefer to be transparent with every adopter, and discuss the needs of each animal. This is also the perfect moment to ask any questions pertaining to that specific pet.

Meet-and-Greet

If it is a match, we move forward with scheduling meet & greets. Every home and every pet is different, so we do not guarantee a same day adoption. Adopting a pet is a huge commitment and SVAS is here to make sure every adoption is successful. We look forward to helping you adopt your next furry family member!

Adoption Requirements

You must have an Arizona residence, as we do not do out-of-state adoptions.
You also must be over the age of 21

Available Dogs

We recommend taking the time to read over each bio, as every pets’ personality is different as well as their needs.
